Michael Huerta, administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration, will speak to about 500 candidates from the School of Social Sciences, Humanities and Arts

He is an experienced transportation official whose reputation for managing complex challenges led him to the international stage when he was selected as managing director of the 2002 Olympic Winter Games in Salt Lake City. 

Before joining the FAA, Huerta held senior positions at Affiliated Computer Services and in the U.S. Transportation Department in Washington, D.C. He was commissioner of New York City's Department of Ports, International Trade and Commerce, and executive director of the Port of San Francisco.

Huerta holds a bachelor's degree in political science from UC Riverside and a master's in public affairs from the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University.

Domonique Jones will represent the Class of 2016 at Saturday’s ceremony. Jones, from Hercules, is double major in political science and economics. She served as president of the Associated Students of UC Merced for the past year and was the first woman to be elected to that post. 

During her four years on campus, Jones worked in a political science research lab and held leadership positions in the Political Science Student Association. After graduation, she plans to take part in the Capital Fellows Program in Sacramento for the next year and then apply to law school.
